Stop the press: cow attack makes the front page

This week's Gorey Guardian has a fantastic example of local news front page, in the story of a local election candidate attacked by a cow - complete with ominous photo of the victim identifying his attacker.

32-year-old Anthony Donohue, who is a Fine Gael candidate in the local election, was letting the animal, which he owns, back into a field a few hours after she gave birth.

For some reason, however, the cow rushed him and trampled his legs. Nothing was broken though, and the paper reports he escaped with serious muscle damage.

In all seriousness, though, the animal weighs 500kg, and the injuries could have been far worse.

So today's headline of the Gorey Guardian is "Council election candidate badly injured by cow". Plez get me out of here
